Have you guys ever gotten into 90's era russia on radio war nerd? That's one of my favorite topics, would be interesting to hear your thoughts on it. Also, loved the outro music, does anyone have the name of the first one?

Great Show, keep it just the way it is.

As to why rich people prefer to blame Putin rather than than understand the rage at home, it is simple. Fixing the jobs/quality of life at home costs money. If you can get everyone blaming Putin, it costs nothing.

I agree, and it would also be nice to hear more about the background of the 98-99 Kosovo war and the US intervention there.

That neocon talking about an anti-Trump Coup and Ames says "....almost like he's going to lead it himself". Best War Nerd laugh i can remember :D

Better (even) than usual. What a nightmare for Turks and Kurds alike.

That's true. I never think enough about money, as is demonstrated by my entire biography.
